Synopsis :
In the fantastical circus world, during the lion act, Mr. Loyal stops Chourour, the lion tamer, from performing, fearing her recklessness will cause disaster, and locks her in the “box of skills.”
Meanwhile, in the real world, twelve-year-old Nour struggles to sleep. Her mother suggests she draw, and Nour sketches imaginary circus characters until she falls asleep.
Two clowns, “Auguste” and “Blanc,” enter her room, asking her to help retrieve the stolen box of skills from Chourour. Nour discovers that what she has drawn is actually real, not just imaginary.
